Ang Lee was afraid that Yang Xuan would act tough in a crowded area and knock down innocent people. After all, the warhorse disguised as the Divine Eagle was too big. Once it galloped, its power could not be underestimated. Moreover, it was not easy to control and could easily knock down people. This was not like the manservant disguised as the Divine Eagle. The manservant was a living person and could easily control himself, but the warhorse was more difficult to control.
"Assistant Minister Li, don't worry. I, Yang Xuan, will not cause trouble for myself. When the time comes, I will invite the group of people from the capital to go on an outing outside the city and give them a surprise."
Yang Xuan said happily. At this moment, it was as if he could already see those hedonistic sons of rich families, who usually flaunted their prowess, looking at him with envy and jealousy. That feeling was quite refreshing.
As for Yang Zhao and the other hedonistic sons, the reason why they were so passionate about acting cool was because they really had nothing to do. Having nothing to do was an extremely boring thing. Because there was nothing to do, they couldn't find any sense of pride. This was especially true for young people. They loved to attract attention and make themselves the center of attention. And acting cool was the prerequisite to achieving this goal.
Wearing more beautiful clothes and bringing more beautiful beauties could attract attention. When these became the standard for most playboys, it was not easy to attract attention.
At this moment, with the appearance of the Divine Eagle Heroes, many playboys found a new way to act tough. Pretending to be Hero Yang became the favorite of many playboys. The appearance of the Divine Eagle Heroes and the accompanying beauties was to satisfy the playboys' need to act tough.
When these standards were available to everyone, the effect of acting tough was greatly reduced. Therefore, the playboys became more and more playful. They even took in Li Mochou and Huang Rong, who did not belong to Hero Yang.
Now, Ang Lee gave Yang Xuan such a good idea. Yang Xuan was very grateful and excited. He could not wait to create the warhorse and the Divine Eagle so that he could show off in front of the other playboys.
"Actually, there is an even more powerful eagle."
Ang Lee suddenly thought of something and rubbed his chin.
Yang Xuan heard this and his eyes immediately lit up. He quickly asked, "There is an even more powerful one? What is it? Tell me. "
Ang Lee shook his head and said, "Forget it, this is a bit unreliable. Moreover, there are too many dangers. I can't show it off."
"Assistant Minister Li, can you at least say something? If it's dangerous, I won't play, okay? "
Yang Xuan's appetite was really uncomfortable. The more Ang Lee didn't say, the more he wanted to know. His heart was itching like ten thousand ants crawling.
"Do you usually read the Tang dynasty newspaper?"
Ang Lee asked.
"Yes, I watch every episode. Otherwise, I wouldn't be dressed like this."
Yang Xuan looked at her clothes and appearance, then looked at the people around her.
"Didn't I say The Return of the Condor Heroes? Have you read all the other content?"
Ang Lee continued asking.
"I've watched more than half of it. I have nothing better to do anyway."
Yang Xuan was very suspicious. He didn't understand what Ang Lee wanted to do. Could it be that the more powerful condor was in the Tang dynasty newspaper? He thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out what it was.
Ang Lee smiled and reminded him, "The plane's test flight was a complete success. You should know this, right?"
"Of course! Who in the capital doesn't know such a big thing? "
Yang Xuan thought it was nonsense. How could he not know such a big news? The Tang dynasty newspaper not only had detailed information, but also beautiful pictures. Therefore, the people of the Tang dynasty basically knew what a plane looked like. It was impossible for Yang Xuan not to know.
"Well, a plane. Assistant Minister Li means to make the plane look like a condor shooting condor. In this way, it can really fly in the sky. Good idea!"
Yang Xuan suddenly thought of something. However, after thinking about it carefully, he felt that there was no hope for the time being. After all, the plane had just been tested successfully. There was still some time before it could be used in practice. Moreover, flying a plane was not like riding a horse. It required a lot of money and a lot of risk. The rich playboys really couldn't afford to do it, nor did they dare to do it.
"Forget it, forget it, forget it! We can't count on the plane. "
Yang Xuan also thought it was impossible.
"Yes! We can't play with the plane smoothly, but in addition to the Return of the Condor Heroes, we can also make the Return of the Condor Heroes on Bicycles and Return of the Condor Heroes on Automobiles. It shouldn't be a big problem. "
Ang Lee felt that he had already come up with an idea. It didn't matter if he came up with a few more ideas. The effect would be the same.
"The Return of the Condor Heroes on Bicycles and Return of the Condor Heroes on Automobiles. Amazing! Assistant Minister Li is worthy of being called a great talent. Just thinking about it casually, his ideas are much better than ours. Amazing. I, Yang Xuan, am even more convinced now. I admire you so much that I prostrate myself in admiration. "
Yang Xuan immediately worshipped Li An even more. He was already filled with admiration. He had already decided that if someone else were to learn how to act tough in the future, he would come back again to learn from Li An and ask for more powerful ways to act tough.
"Assistant Minister Li, today's test flight time is almost up. If you don't go now, you won't be able to make it."
The attendant looked at the sky and reminded him in a low voice.
"Oh, Assistant Minister Li is busy. Then I won't bother you. Assistant Minister Li, please."
Yang Xuan said very sensibly.
Ang Lee immediately mounted the warhorse and said loudly, "I'll go first. Giddy up …"
After saying that, he quickly rushed to the airport. The plane would be tested soon. He had to be there as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would affect the progress of the test flight. He had already informed them that the test flight could only be carried out after he arrived. Therefore, Ang Lee's late arrival would definitely affect the progress of the test flight.
This test flight would take a long time, more than two hours. It was mainly to test whether the plane's engine would malfunction under long-term operation. It also tested whether the plane's fuel tank was big enough to support the plane's long-term flight requirements. It also tested the reliability of various other facilities under long-term flight conditions.
This test flight was extremely important. As long as it was successful, the first generation of the plane could basically be finalized and mass-produced. Then it could be put into operation.
The main job of the first generation of the plane was naturally to explore and deliver letters. The huge advantage in speed allowed the plane to deliver letters much faster than other methods.
In addition, some of the more complicated terrains were difficult to use manpower to investigate. It was easier to use the plane. Looking down from the sky, everything could be seen at a glance. Especially in the area of mapping, the plane's effect was very good. After combining the two, the map drawn would be perfect.
"Assistant Minister Li, the various technologies of the aircraft have almost been verified. The biggest improvement in this test flight is the increase in the size of the fuel tank, which is three times larger than the previous one. The aircraft is also slightly larger. Other than that, there are not many other changes. There will definitely be no problems during the test flight."
The petty official in charge of the plane's test flight promised.
"Whether there is a problem or not, we can only be sure after the test flight. What we say now is just speculation. Well, it's getting late. Let's start the test flight!"
Ang Lee was looking forward to this test flight and ordered.
After the test pilot started the plane, the huge plane slowly began to taxi from one end of the runway. The taxi speed was a little slower. After all, the power was the same as the last time, but the weight of the plane had increased a lot. Therefore, the taxi speed was naturally slower. The taxi distance needed naturally needed to be longer. There were also several stops that were longer. Therefore, it was completely enough to meet the plane's normal take-off and landing.
The taxi distance was about fifty steps longer than the previous few times. However, the plane still flew very smoothly. This made Ang Lee quite pleased. This was only the beginning of the test. There were more tests to come. Two hours of continuous flight and landing were both huge tests.
This was the last test flight before the mass-production. Ang Lee attached great importance to this in his heart. He did not dare to have the slightest carelessness or fooling around. At the moment of take-off, Ang Lee's heart was hanging.
The plane flew steadily into the sky and circled back and forth within a radius of five miles near the airport. From time to time, it made some turns to test the performance of the plane.
Every time the plane turned in the air, Ang Lee's heart was in his throat. He was afraid that the test pilot would accidentally drop the plane. If so, it would seriously affect the progress of the plane's finalization.
Ang Lee had enough confidence in the plane that he was responsible for developing, but he had some lack of confidence in the test pilot. After all, the test pilot was also a novice. His strength was really not flattering. If the development of the plane was delayed because of the test pilot's problem, the loss would be too great.
Fortunately, the performance of the plane was excellent, and the test pilot's skills were strong enough. Therefore, there were many accidents that almost happened, but in the end, they were safe. This made Ang Lee very glad.
"Wuwuwu …"
The ear-piercing noise lasted for two hours. In other words, the plane had successfully flown in the sky for two hours, which made Li An extremely satisfied. At this moment, as long as the plane landed steadily, the test flight would be considered a complete success.
"It's been an hour. Let the plane land!"
Ang Lee gave the order to land the plane.
Soon, the test pilot on the plane received the order and began to adjust the attitude and speed of the plane to prepare for landing.
Closer, closer, closer and closer. The plane approached the runway step by step. The landing gear touched the runway steadily. The plane bumped, then steadily slowed down and finally stopped on the runway.
"It's a success. This test flight has been successful. It can be finalized and mass-produced. Great, it's really exciting."
Ang Lee stood up happily.
"Assistant Minister Li, how many planes do we need to mass-produce?"
The clerk asked.
"Thirty planes. This batch of planes needs to be mass-produced for use near the capital. After all, the performance is still not strong enough. After mass production, we need to continue to improve. In the future, we will build bigger and stronger planes."
Ang Lee said.
"Yes, Assistant Minister Li. I'll arrange it right away."
When Xiao Li heard that he was going to mass produce 30 sets, he was very happy. This time, he could perform well again. Getting some money or something was easy.
Since the first generation of planes of the Tang dynasty was about to be mass-produced, Ang Lee naturally had to consider the issue of airports. Otherwise, there was no way to use the planes normally.
There was already an airport in the capital, and it was the one that was being tested. However, this was far from enough. With such a large area, at least one airport had to be built in each of the four directions. In addition, the few cities near the capital also had to be built. Even a city like Luoyang had to be built.
However, with the current flight schedule, it was impossible to fly from the capital to Luoyang in one trip. For this reason, an airport needed to be built between the capital and Luoyang. In this way, important materials could be quickly transported to Luoyang. When there was important news, it could also be transmitted quickly, so that there would be no delay.
In addition, from a long-term perspective, airports should also be built in some important cities further away so that planes could be used in the future.
At present, Ang Lee chose 20 airports. In addition to the four airports in the capital, the westernmost one was Fengxiang Airport, and the easternmost one was Luoyang Airport.
After choosing the locations to build the airports, Ang Lee immediately wrote a document and stated the purpose of building these airports. He also asked the imperial court for permission to immediately allocate various resources to start building these 20 airports to ensure that the first batch of 30 planes could play their due role.
Ang Lee was busy with the R&D Center and the newspaper all day long. He basically did not participate in the open and covert struggles of the imperial court, nor did he join any faction. He seemed to be carefree and comfortable. It could be said that he was the most comfortable official in the entire Tang dynasty. Moreover, he never had to worry about falling out of favor.
Ang Lee was not worried about falling out of favor because he had scientific knowledge that no one else had. He was a talent that the emperor highly relied on. Without Ang Lee, many institutions of the Tang dynasty would be difficult to operate. Other officials did not have the same ability as Ang Lee, so they were afraid of falling out of favor, especially those who were usually domineering. They were most afraid of falling out of favor. Once they lost the imperial favor, they were likely to be retaliated against.
In addition, among the officials of the Tang dynasty, there were quite a lot of fence-sitters and sensible people. When they saw an official in favor, they would desperately try to please him. However, once the official lost the imperial favor, they would immediately turn their backs on him. They would always be loyal to those in power who could bring them benefits. They would certainly not be loyal to those who could not bring them benefits.
At present, in addition to the genius Ang Lee, there were many people who could be favored by the emperor, such as the Yang siblings, Li Linfu, and so on.
In the imperial court, Li Linfu had always been the main force. He controlled the writing of the Political Affairs Hall and basically had the final say in big and small matters. This caused the aristocratic Yang family of the Tang dynasty to be dissatisfied.
